On December 21, 2005, the Satellte Division granted Mobile Satellite Ventures
Subsidiary LLC‘s requests to designate earth station applications that seek authority to
provide Mobile Satellite Services in the L—band with Inmarsat‘s 4F2 satellite, t be
located at 52.75° W.L., as "permit—but—disclose" for purposes of the Commission‘s rules
governing ex parte communications. See Motion to Designate Proceeding as "Permit—
But—Disclose," filed by Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary on November 30, 2005
